- bike did not slide/skid forward after fall (no marks anywhere, road or bike)!
- there is a wiper blade stuck to the spoke of rear wheel (leads to a guess)
so what happened? movie style - rear wheel jam - eject seat? or am i at fault in technique somewhere?
Without more information no one here could comment on your technique other than to suggest that possibly you missed spotting and avoiding debri on the road.
Hope you heal well and rapidly and can get back to cycling soon!
